Well had my first TT in the form of the "mt wellington challenge", managed to get a time of 1h10min48seconds, pretty stoked with that. On the upside i wasn't overtaken after starting 16th, but did a fair bit of overtaking (think about 10 or so people), and was pretty satisfying overtaking people on $8-9k bike with ZIpp 404s etc when i was on my old standard avanit giro with $200 wheels. Im definately looking forward to doing some more racing in the future

What was the distance?

21km with approx 1100m climbing, i felt pretty buggered at the top, and hit a wall about 3km out when i really should have been able to push. i feel like a tapered pretty well leading up and had an average HR of 175bpm (i was a bit worried when i kept looking at my HR and seeing 180+).
